Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 609: Our Target Can No Longer Be Kumogakure!

Biwa Juzo immediately expressed his opinion. After Aoba's analysis, he understood that this was an opportunity for Kirigakure, and it was essential to seize it.

"Take a chance; a bicycle could turn into a motorcycle!" That's the principle Biwa Juzo thought of. They could simply retreat to Kirigakure if they lost. Konohagakure was encountering too many problems in this process, and these were not issues that could be quickly resolved.

Aside from their village.

Nearly every other force in the ninja world was an enemy of Konohagakure.

Even if the newly appointed Fourth Hokage were Namikaze Minato, he could not withstand the pressure from four other ninja villages alone.

At that time...

Even Namikaze Minato would have to endure such circumstances.

More importantly...

If their operation failed, the responsibility would fall on Shimura Danzo and the central hostility would not be directed at them.

The situation would change.

Moreover, powerful villages like Kumogakure and Iwagakure were still ahead, shielding them!

Biwa Juzo quickly understood the benefits and risks involved, not on his own, but through Satsuma Rentaro's guidance. He suddenly saw everything.

Besides the benefits of success.

The costs were minimal.

That was the most crucial aspect!

If their operation succeeded and killed Namikaze Minato, it would open a new scenario for Kirigakure, granting them new possibilities.

"Let's do it!"

Biwa Juzo declared again; his fists clenched tight. He still had the authority to make such decisions.

"Rentaro, when do we ambush?"

Biwa Juzo's eyes shone with an earnest light; his mind made up about the matter. Since the decision had been made, there was no point in hesitating.

This was his most sincere thought at the moment.

"Let's do it!"

Suikazan Fuguki immediately nodded, his face breaking into a combative smile. Every member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was eager for battle, and once they were resolved, none would easily give up.

For a moment.

Both men seemed ablaze with the fighting spirit, ready for the task.

"The sooner, the better!"

Aoba, seeing their readiness, knew the deal was practically sealed. His efforts had paid off, and now it was just a matter of concluding the arrangement.

"When I came out, Namikaze Minato was already on his way back to Konohagakure. Now, if we can't intercept him before he returns, even if we still want to participate, it will be too late. So, if a decision has already been made, we should proceed with this immediately."

Aoba spoke earnestly, his words this time devoid of any deceit.

This matter is deceptive.

But the fact that Namikaze Minato was almost back to Konohagakure was true.

At this point.

If the Seven Ninja Swordsmen had not moved toward Konohagakure as he envisioned, all his efforts would have been in vain.

"Well said!"

Biwa Juzo immediately nodded, turning to Suikazan Fuguki, "Call them all now. We must leave immediately. There's no time to delay!"

Biwa Juzo was a decisive man. Before making a decision, everything could be negotiated, but once decided, he wouldn't waver.

"Yes!"

Suikazan Fuguki responded immediately, quickly gathering the rest of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

"Rentaro."

Biwa Juzo continued to look at Aoba, his eyes querying, having decided on a general direction, but he still needed to discuss further details with Aoba.

"How many of us should go?" Biwa Juzo asked immediately.

"Just the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are enough," Aoba quickly responded. "Our goal is merely to assassinate Namikaze Minato, not to attack Konohagakure. We should avoid conflict with other ninjas as much as possible, as we still need to cooperate briefly with Konohagakure afterward."

"Alright," Biwa Juzo nodded, feeling that Aoba's plan was flawless, the best course of action, thereby setting aside this concern to focus on another question, "What do you think about the current battle between Kirigakure and Kumogakure?"

"Stop immediately," Aoba responded without hesitation.

"What?!"

Biwa Juzo was stunned, not expecting this response from Satsuma Rentaro.

When he asked this question, he wondered whether Rentaro might want to seize some control over Kirigakure's forces by volunteering to lead them.

But the response he received was different, leaving Biwa Juzo puzzled.

"You don't plan to continue leading Kirigakure in attacking Kumogakure?"

Biwa Juzo stared intently at Aoba, trying to discern any hint from Aoba's expression, but Aoba's face remained impassive.

"Of course not!"

Aoba denied decisively, not because he was pretending; he simply had no such intention.

After all, these were Kirigakure's ninja forces.

Whether Kumogakure won or Kirigakure did, it had nothing to do with him. Commanding troops was absolutely out of the question for him.

Let alone Kirigakure.

He wouldn't even direct the battle in Konohagakure!

Of course.

Aoba couldn't say it like that.

He still needed a very rational reason to support his actions.

"Our target can no longer be Kumogakure!"

Aoba stated solemnly, locking eyes with Biwa Juzo, his gaze intense, confident in what he was about to explain.

For a moment.

Biwa Juzo seemed to sense something.

Immediately, he inclined his ear to listen to what Aoba was about to say, without making even the slightest sound or movement, maintaining an intense focus.
